Oh kay... I know you heard that

Tomorrow's chinese!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!!!!
Like I care

So sick of it... Those chinese words... Reading them while wondering why do we learn such stupid things such as wen yan wen and shi all those shits

Who created all these??? Were our ancestors so free to create so many troubles for us young kids today studying chinese? Or they were just being emo over something and created all the 'shi' or just by looking at the moon and created another hymn for it?

Wtf... Why wouldn't they go play some electric guitar or drums and release all those emo-ness??? Or just cut themselves and bleed through the night. That'll do a lot.

I think I rather being tortured than memorizing them...
Or spend my time on something more useful or more productive which brings in profit lol
Maybe a gig tonight makes RM100 for me :)

Oh kay you know what I might be shitting meaningless shit today but you can ignore me. That's the bad effect after battling with chinese words in ma' brain.

Yeah blame them, blame them

Will update after exam... PROMISE

Great sax-ists

I surfed youtube for the whole night yesterday

And I found some really great saxophonists

One of the them is a GIRL!
No criticism to females but I seldom see them play good woodwinds



:0!!!
She's so good in it!
Couldn't believe what I saw, she plays it like Kenny G!
Koreans have got talents. She was so smart in applying jazz licks in a slow pop song:)

I think I'ma learn this song. This song is almost perfect except for the harshy xtra high notes and the poor body language she had.


Dave Koz and Danny Jung(another korean)
Great performance this is. Most of all great partnership and body language:)



I think I should really get back to my practice=.=

I wanna throw out whenever I hear 'you raise me up'... Had too much

Back once again

Allo peopz! How were hols? Mine were great :)

Now everyone's talking about the teachers' day performance thingy... Audition is near and I believe everybody's rushing (include me) hehe

I actually shouldn't be where I am right now. Playing for the science stream. Well it's all started with Jon, Alex, Steffi and I forming a classical band. After knowing that there will be only one group selected from each form plus science stream needed a music department so we merged into their performance.

Came back from KL last sunday. There's only one intention of going there i.e.
GET A SAX

Arrived KL on friday 12noon. Went to Bukit Bintang for sax haunting and I was so unlucky that they didn't have all the models. But they did sell quite a wide varieties of cymbals :)


Look! :)


Chinas


Hmmm wonder how much eh?

You wouldn't wanna know


Various types of congas and drumsets


After that my mom and I went to Starhill for a walk(I dono why we went there)
It's not the same since the time I came when I was still a li'l kid

It's full of branded shops now like Louis Vuitton, Dior, Rolex and stuff. High class shopping mall.

But the inner design of the mall was cool. Classic








We went Damansara after that for another music shop. It's the same as the Bukit Bintang one but this one is HQ :)

My apologize for not taking any pics there for we were rushing to it coz the business hour was almost over when we got there.

But oh well I DID GET A SAX =)

That's a soft sax case looks like a luggage eh?

The brand is called Jupiter
Ju-pi-ter yes... :)

Nowadays soft case...

There you go :)

I can see myself through the reflection =P

Strap, mouthpiece and its protector

Reeds and mouthpiece sticker

Sax swab, neck brush and reed case

Lacquer polish


Well the agent who sold me the sax gave me all these (as shown above) for free expect for the polish :) How nice... =)

The day when we came back to KK. I realised that I didn't buy any clothing :0

Not even one. Unbelievable? Believe it!

LOL

Had a great day with friends on Monday. Together we performed in a wedding (gigs)

Ta-da!!!

Yes I know I need a haricut... like real soon

Pics of the wedding coming soon only here :)

The couple decided to add a few of their own programs causing Jon and I being opted out from the wedding performance :( WTH!

I couldn't join my church's retreat to Kudat at first because of the performance and now it's canceled but the registration for Kudat is over. :'( WTH!
I couldn't join both and I'll be rotting at home on 30th night.

So it was afternoon I was in De Notes. And they finally decided to move the drums upstairs(the new big big studio). AWESHUM! Then so ngam I'm the next student bah so I kinda did an open ceremony for the new drums room =D Yeah and thanks to Kevin and Shaun. The soundproof was perfect. Although the sounds are dented but you certainly can jam as loud as you desire.






I can't believe June is coming





I miss December :'(

Aiyo confusing...

Ssssupppp guys!?

Life's been soooooooo............... meaningless here in TTSS. School life is fun but when it comes to study you suffer.

I've spent most of my time on music within these few months seriously. Haven't been really studying since the last day of exam last term. Even though I'm sitting in the class quietly facing the teacher in front but my mind is still hanging somewhere in De Notes. Where Teddy was still standing in front of me teaching me how to play "Misty". Where Shaun taught me how to play the conga. Where Kevin showed me our coming-soon BIG BIG LARGE HUGE WIDE studio.

Yeah to be honest my mind's still lingering at the place where I had my best memory. I'm not getting good results from my tests recently. Account has been hard and shit. It jumbles up your mind then you go crazy about it and feeling hopeless and that's where you learn to cut yourself with a knife.

Have been watching youtube with my half-dead laptop here it'll have its 8th birthday soon. How old... And when I see Arthur Kam moving those lightning fast hands I just feel like cutting myself=.=








And he is 17 too =O!!!!!

Okay my confessions here I just fall in love with the sax so hard that I actually practice less on my drumset even though I have the time. Not to say that I've lost my passion towards the drums. It's just that I'm now currently in a Jazz-period so... yeah you know...

Of course I'm looking forward to my new house. I'm gonna move into it real soon. Like... soon lah... I'm gonna have my own jamming room and I promise to God/myself/parents that I will go full force from there =) On both instruments. AND THEORY =(

My sister came and gone back so quickly. Well she recommended me to go Singapore for music instead of Australia. Oh kay this is so confusing. I love AU so much that I wanna go there for further studies. But my sister has told me that Sing is better than AU in music so.... WTH

Feel so useless sometimes. I don't focus on my studies(although I get good results hehe=) I rather persue my career in music but I don't have a direction. I'm totally lost. Will I be able to earn money and live when I grow up being as a musician? Will I enjoy my life? Will I regret? Will I suffer from failures? Will I succeed? It's so risky...

AHHHH cut it off!!!

Frustrated

Maybe studying in TTSS wasn't a good choice at first if I had chosen to pursue my career in music.

YEAH. You just heard that. I said MUSIC.

Surprised? I was surprised too when I just made my decision. Since I'm kinda regret that I didn't go to science stream at first so now I won't let my chance slip away again.

So some of you would say: Yeah Fed it's a good choice since it's what you love... Yeah if it is something you love it would be easy blah blah...

I mean... seriously... it's not as easy as you thought.

I just came back from De Notes. Shaun asked me to play a drum solo on the drumset. And...I screwed up =(
My mind was completely blank. Blackout. How am I supposed to play to impress people. Well of course I did develop some grooves but it wasn't so impressive. There were lacking of tempo and accent and dynamics and groove etc and I didn't play so well :( It just wasn't the typical me. DISAPPOINTMENT

I really wanted to practice more after Shaun left but I didn't have enough time. I could hardly even touch my drumset in a week. Damn SPM! I don't have time! I need a few more extra hours each day to improve!

To tell the truth doing a drum solo(or any other instruments solo) isn't an easy job. We musicians know that but not for the rest of the people. They expect more. So they would think: Oh kay... So the drummer of the De Notes student band could only do this? This much? Woah you suck big time man. OKAY cut the shit off...

I swear to God that I'm gonna spend 90% of my time on my music after this year if I choose not to take any Pre-U. I seriously wouldn't wanna pursue my career on stuff which I don't like. I'm not impressed of myself succeeding in something which I don't have the passion towards.

I'm the kind of person who rather earn less and enjoy more in what I'm doing. I could have less salary next time being a drum teacher(example) but I would surely enjoy every minute of being one. I just feel proud and glad whenever I contribute on something I love. I would work my ass off for that groove or a correct long sax note.

So FYI I will be staying here for another year after SPM either A levels(for guarantee lah) or locking myself inside my jamming room for more torturing(my new house yay!). By 2011 you should see me no more in KK. I'll probably be at AIM(Australian Institute of Music).

So y'all better make a move too. Think of what you wanna study. What you're good at. Which path is the one you're passionate about. Which course you think you could manage the best. So if you wanna study MUSIC. Mark my word, THINK AGAIN. That'll help a lot but of course most of all...

Weird huh?!

Ohkay I've been playing the saxophone recently and it's been weird.

I'm a drummer now, and will become a saxophonist pretty soon and I found out that when I was playing the drums, I'm not so impressed by my tai kos(teachers/seniors) but then the people around me likes it. Whereas when I'm playing the sax my tai kos were impressed but then my friends and families gave no comments on it.

So... WEIRD HUH?!

Now I'm like an alien. I used to listen to rock and alternative and metal and punk but now I don't. I listen to Kenny G =.= Ohkay this feeling is really uncommon coz you're a rocker in a minute and then you're a classical player in the next minute. Go figure.

Confused eh? Drumming is supposed to be my major instrument but now I feel like changing it to sax instead and drums on minor. Well but that doesn't mean that I've lost the passion for drums, I still love playing and torturing myself on it but then I'm really hooked by sax recently. No matter how, I am still going to complete my grade 8 on drums this year so good luck to me.

Good news is my family encourage me to get a sax =) I can't believe that man. I've just learnt it for 1 months and a 1/2 but then Kevin was so eager to lend me the De Notes sax for a day. And of coz I took full use of it =P

Been playing songs like:

WHY?!

Deny Deny Deny!!!

That's only thing you know how to do. Are you even serious?

You're not telling the truth but we humans were created by God with a pair of eyes to observe and we know what's happening.

So why do you keep denying?

I would feel hurt if I were him. Are you contented? Are you committed? Are you serious? Are you really into it? Is this what you want? If it is then why are you hiding from the fact?

At least if you tell the world then I would just accept the fact but now I'm stuck here...

I don't know what you're thinking. I don't understand you.

You're UNEXPLAINABLE/ UNSOLVABLE/ NO SOLUTION/ UNREACHABLE/ MATH ERROR/ SYNTAX ERROR/N/A

Say LOL/LAWL/LUL if you want to...

Friday, March 20, 2009

You and me

You've changed...

You're different...

You weren't the one I knew...

You don't talk to me...

You don't laugh with me...

You don't look into my eyes... not anymore...

You're avoiding...

Your smile isn't the one you first gave me...

You feel awkward...

But it's never your fault...




I'm trying to hide...

I'm avoiding...

I turn around and leave...

I feel bad...

I become hypocrite...

I force myself to smile...

I feel awkward...

I feel emo...

I feel envious...

I am selfish...

I am worried...

I'm another person...

My tongue is tangled...

Whenever I see you...

I'm sorry...
